Re: [Avid-L2] Speaking of AMA...

Yes - that doesn't work - just wait until you see the mess of error
messages when you shove in the wrong disk. Close all bins before you
mount a new disk - all those clips called cxxxxx because the camera
person didn't change the settings. Avid links solely on clip name at
the moment.

The one bit of metadata that is not automatically there (even with a
consolidate/transcode) is the disk name. One could happily use AMA to
view clips and make selects then consolidate or transcode to regular
media storage. Everything would be fine until s/he needed to reimport
something and looked over at the stack of hundreds of XDCam disks. I
wonder how hard it would be for Avid to prompt for an optional disk name
when it sees an AMA source.
